The DS could be compared to which console (if possible) in terms of power ? 3DO ? Saturn ? PS1 ?

I would see DS something close to PS1. Or maybe Saturn... I have no idea how many MIPS of performace the ARMs in DS have...

Yeah, it's not something that's easy to gauge. It has a ~66MHz ARM9 but rumor has it that memory wait states slow it down quite a bit.
